Strange #228
In "Je suis... l'Araignée !", Reed Richards confronts the lingering mystery of Jean Grey’s return, uncovering the truth behind her resurrection in a forgotten capsule. As Jean struggles to reclaim her memories, she faces the unsettling revelation that the Phoenix she once was was not a mere entity—but a being born from her own essence, ultimately undone by its own newfound humanity. Written by John Byrne and Chris Claremont, with art by Byrne and Jackson Guice, and inked by Terry Austin, this issue blends psychological depth with the surreal, all rendered in striking colors by Glynis Oliver. The cover, penciled by Byrne and inked by Austin, captures the moment of revelation with haunting precision.
In "Qui de ses cendres naîtra !", Reed Richards uncovers the truth behind Jean Grey’s mysterious return, only to find her mind fractured and her past rewritten. As he works to restore her memories, Jean confronts a haunting revelation: she was once replaced by the Phoenix, a being that perished not in flame, but in the quiet tragedy of becoming human by copying her.
